Thank you for the concise explanation of the altered dominant sound. I’ve heard that term thrown around, but I haven’t heard it explained this plainly. I’ll have to practice that. I also like playing the whole-tone scale over an augmented chord (or sharp 11 chord). I learned about this from the Ray Brown Trio’s version of “Take The ‘A’ Train.” The first II chord is augmented, and Ray Brown plainly plays the whole-tone scale.
Sir, I need your help. I often struggle to choose the right version of a chord on particular. A chord has three versions - root, 1st inversion, 2nd inversion. So, on a particular note which one to be played? Please let me know. And one more thing, is there any rule that if I need to play a chord on particular note , I have to incorporate that note in the same position in the chord? Suppose - I am in the key of D . I need to play an Emin chord over an E note. Which inversion should I select for this? Please help me to understand this .
Thanks for your comment. It would be hard to give a detailed answer in this setting, but I can tell you that overtime you develop your go-to chord voicings based on the situation and style. Often times I play many voicings and move between them interchangeably. As for the Emin7 chord… play frets 7, 5, and 7 for the notes D, G, and E. Often times we put the 7th tone in the bass. Cheers!
Jimi loved that #9 chord.
